Brandie Lane, a member of the West Point Band at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, N.Y., is up for a Grammy Award for best-engineered Album. U.S. Army photo[/caption] WEST POINT, N.Y. – The West Point Band's newest audio engineer, Army Staff Sgt. Brandie Lane, was nominated for a Grammy in the category that will recognize last year’s best-engineered classical music album.
Awarded by the Recording Academy, the Grammy honors excellence in the recording arts and sciences. The album, "Quincy Porter: Complete Viola Works," also is nominated in two performance categories: best instrumental soloist performance with orchestra and best chamber music performance. Lane also has engineering credits on "Sarah Schuster Ericsson: 20th Century Harp Sonatas," nominated in the best instrumental soloist performance without orchestra category. Before she joined the Army in July, Lane was the head audio engineer at Sono Luminus, a record label in Virginia that specializes in classical and jazz music. These albums were completed during her time there. "It was truly an honor to be part of such a special project," Lane said. "The album was a fantastic melding of research and performance involving many world-class engineers, producers and performers. “Many thanks to them, and the rest of the team at Sono Luminus for allowing me the opportunity to be a part of it. I feel proud to be representing the West Point Band and the Army Band program in such a positive way," she added. Lane also has engineering credits on the 2008 Grammy-nominated album, "Ronn McFarlane: Indigo Road," which was in the classical crossover category. The engineering and classical portions of the award ceremony will be streamed live at http://www.grammy.com before the live telecast Feb. 13. Lane will attend this event and the televised ceremony.
